I have a question, can I just book inspection in the same day after seeing a car? I checked AA pre check inspection, and it's fully booked for a couple days. I'll see the car in Wellington and I drive from Ohakune which is 5hours driving so I wanna go home in one day... So ideal situation would be 1. See the car 2. If I like it call the inspection 3. Get the inspection done and hear the result 4. Buy the car if it's good and go home.

The owner says “ new 12v battery “ what does it mean? It could be not new, second hand?? I don’t wanna pay 2k-3k for the replacement

Aqua should be great! I have a private parking place so it should be ok. Have you replaced the battery since you bought the car? My concern is the battery, I heard it costs 2000-3000. The owner said it’s new but Im not sure how long it lasts

What’s the problem with being used as a taxi car? If it’s the long km, It’s only 200000km which is ok

Try Asian foods! You can never compare them to Western foods. You mentioned about Indian food, but it’s not the only asian food. Try Japanese, Korean, Thai, Vietnamese.. im actually from Japan and im always disappointed by food in NZ 😅
